Three lanes of the Garden State Parkway at the northbound-only Bergen Toll Plaza are closed.

Traffic is moving slowly and Feeney is urging motorists to avoid the area or seek alternate routes.

State Police Sgt. Brian Polite said a Toyota Prius driven by 86-year-old Ralph Schiller of Fort Lee was approaching the Bergen Toll Plaza around 3:30 p.m., when it side-swiped a Honda Accord driven by Kristie Frost of Pasadena, Md.

Police said Schiller’s car continued forward and struck a barrier and a toll booth, and the booth and car both caught fire.

Polite said Schiller was removed from the vehicle and taken to a nearby hospital complaining of chest pains. There were no other injuries. No charges have been filed in the ongoing investigation.
